Not knowing much about this particular clip, I’ll simply describe it as something Contributor Matt Seinberg just sent in as an Airchexx Exclusive. Sure, its a week after Labor Day, but this modern day Top 40 station really sounds quite different 26 years ago doing nothing but Oldies. Thanks Matt!


Pam Merly, WLIR-FM Garden City | 1978

(UPDATED) Here’s Pam Merly heard back in the days of the ‘old’ progressive rock WLIR. Yes, a bit subdued, but that’s the way AOR was done. Notice that in ‘78, AOR was NOT all hard rock, but a true representation of great rock artists and cuts off their albums that didn’t get played on top 40 radio. This format truly was great, unlike today’s 200-song playlist Classic Rock format.
Pam Merly, we hear, can be heard on SiriusXM Deep Tracks – Check her out if you have Satellite radio.
